From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

The red carpet is bustling over in South Kensington with a whole bunch of recognisable faces ready to get drunk celebrate the past year in film
Pugh's up against Daniel Kaluuya, Timothée Chalamet, Tessa Thompson and Josh O'Connor in one of the evening's most hotly-contested categories
Phantom Thread star Lesley Manville's on the red carpet having been performing in the West End 10 mins before because she is a goddamn pro
So for those who are confused, the ceremony kicks off at 7pm but won't be on TV until 9pm (quite why it cant be televised live we do not know)
